  I never had to make the decision that you are facing - but one of my little dogs was diabetic - and the vet did tell me that there was a good chance that she would become blind later on.   But - she went on quickly to say that dogs adjust to blindness very well and can get along very well. 
 Nevertheless, it is sad --   I'm sorry.
 
 ***** If you do decide not to have the surgery - and you have the time and ability to give her a little extra care - she will probably do very well.
 
 I wish you the best of luck --  Carol Jean
